Some fragrant plum blossoms in the ancient Yu Gardens of Shanghai.
Verging on the over-exposed, this photo nonetheless shows the magic of Yu Yuan gardens in Shanghai. While there, I attempted (then soon later rejected) chicken feet, but I did quite enjoy the lovely dumplings, the Xiaolongbao, even if they were made from the ‘insides of a crad! Highly recommended.
A window into the Yu Gardens in Shanghai, China
Definitely worth a visit whenever you are in this incredible Chinese city. the Yu Gardens are an age-old oasis of tranquility.
The model’s name is “YU” which means Jade in China, thus the title “YU” can do it!

The garden was finished in 1577 by a government officer of the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) named Pan Yunduan.

Pop Art is a visual art movement that emerged in the mid 1950s in Britain and in parallel in the late 1950s in the United States. Pop Art challenged tradition by asserting that an artist’s use of the mass produced visual commodities of popular culture is contiguous with the perspective of Fine Art since Pop removes the material from its context and isolates the object, or combines it with other objects, for contemplation. The concept of Pop Art refers not as much to the art itself as to the attitudes that led to it.

The Conservatory for Botanical Science has a large tropical collection, as well as a carnivorous plants wing. In addition, a large open field planted with Eucalyptus trees serves as a re-created “Australian Outback.” The Huntington has a program to protect and propagate endangered plant species. In 1999 and 2002, a specimen of Amorphophallus titanum, or “corpse flower”, bloomed at the facility.

My latest Photoshop piece created for my brother’s 18th birthday. Dogma is from a Yu-Gi-Oh card and is not my own character / I used a crappy scanned card for reference so not all the details are exactly the same (as pointed out by my bro). I created the character in a whole new pose. This was an experiment with lighting and form without resorting to an outline. / I was pretty happy with the outcome. I hope you like it too! / Any criticism and ideas for improvement will be well appreciated.
